Can transplanted hair be placed between existing hairs to achieve density? My hair loss is spread even on the top / crown area.

New follicles can indeed be transplanted in between your existing hairs.  This is very commonly done and will thicken up what you already have.  But remember that prevention of further hair loss is just as important as a restoration procedure.  Hair loss has no cure and once your native hairs are lost they can only be replaced with a transplant.   Some of the measures that have been shown to prevent hair loss include topical minoxidil (Rogaine), oral finasteride (Propecia), Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), and Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections.  It would be best if you were evaluated by a surgeon who treats exclusively hair loss. He or she can then review and suggest the best course of action for your individual situation.

Yes it can be done. However, your result will depend on what your net gain is.If you have a lot of weak existing hairs in the transplanted area they will likely fall out from shock/ stress and that would make your net gain lower and the results will be not be as dramatic. You should consider some non surgical treatments to help stabilize existing hair making it less likely to fall out after the procedure.

georgius,Thanks for your great question! Good technique to accomplish this is used almost every day in my practice. This technique is used not only to maximize the naturalness and density of a hair transplant, but also to anchor the hair transplant into the existing fringes to create a seamless transition.

Transplanted hair can be placed between existing hair. However if the natural hair has good density it might harm the existing hair.

Thanks for your questionYes you can place the hairs inbetween existing hairs. This will increase the density. You can get some shedding of the existing hairs after placement but this will usually return.From what you have described, you would ideal candidate for hair transplant surgeryBW

Yes, density can be increased by transplanting between existing hairs.  As the other surgeons stated, this has to be done carefully. Good luck.  

Yes, hair grafts can be carefully placed between existing hairs.  This obviously needs to be done carefully to avoid damaging the existing hairs.  To be properly evaluated, you need to be seen by a top hair restoration doctor.

It is very possible to place within existing hair growth. One factor is the quality of the existing hair and the density. If this hair is miniaturised or fine to any great percentage it maybe better to ignore the hair and place directly over. This can also depend on the area to cover and the quality of your donor hair to sustain advanced hair loss patterns if required. 

Part of the skill required in graft placement and planning involves this exact skill. You are a great candidate even though it seems as if things are too perfect

The answer to your question is yes if the current hairs are not to close together. There are different techniques that are used for hair transplantation I prefer the neo graft method. This high tech device does not use scaples to remove doner hair. The doner hair grafts are suctioned out and then inserted into the doner areas. The procedure is performed with the patient awake. Recovery is less versus traditional techniques. I hope you find this information useful.
